Chapter 333: Horned EagleTranslator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

More and more sea snakes were appearing. Looking over, the entire surface of the sea was covered by a horde of triangular snake heads.

Some of them extended their necks, coldly looking at the fearful soldiers on the ship, their raw red tongues flicking at high speeds; Some of them were disgustingly entangled together, continuously twitching their pitch-black, slimy bodies…

Have all of the snakes in the sea gathered together?

Yang Ling shook his head as he looked at the countless sea snakes, quickly summoning his Magical Beast Army. Flying Magical Beasts like the Horned Bee Beasts, Self-destructing Bats and Twin-legged Flying Dragons were responsible for offense, while the Evil Eyes, spiders and Chimeras were responsible for defense.

“Heavy catapults, on the ready!”

“Those with heavy shields move forward. Catapults, get into formation, quick!”

…

Under the instructions of Ashnamov, the soldiers rapidly assumed their positions. Those manning the heavy catapults aimed at the largest Black Mamba Giant Python, the Galapagos Tortoisemen donning heavy armor and wielding longspears stood at the edge of the deck, while the rest of the soldiers holding the Pear Blossom Catapult were responsible for defense. Everyone knew in their hearts that if the ship was to be brought down by the many giant pythons, no one would be able to make it out of this alive!

However, seeing Yang Ling’s Magical Beast Army appear out of nowhere, both the Galapagos Tortoisemen who were adept in close combat and the ordinary soldiers instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

The battle where Yang Ling reversed the situation and killed the Golden Giant Dragon Ducasse once again proved the rumored exceptional abilities of Yang Ling; Being able to be on friendly terms with the Chief Elder Faern and Elder Yakut from the Elven Divine Temple once again invited the people’s speculations toward Yang Ling’s family.

The news became more exaggerated as it spread. At the Sallero Harbor, the story was that Yang Ling had killed over a hundred Golden Giant Dragons barehanded, and the Chief Elder from the Troop Association and the elder from the Elven Divine Temple had all come forward to congratulate him.

With Goode intentionally sensationalizing the news, the reputation of the leader Yang Ling had reached unprecedented heights, becoming a pillar of mental support for the territory.

The troops had originally felt their scalps turn numb, their movements turning rigid as they faced the horde of sea snakes. However, seeing that the undefeated leader was by their side, seeing the Twin-legged Flying Dragons flying around in the sky, as they felt the well-made weapons in their hands, their morale soared.

Hiss…

With a wave of hisses, the snakes emerged from the surface of the sea. Under the lead of a few hundred-meter-long Black Mamba Giant Pythons, they charged maniacally toward the ship.

“Release the arrows, quick!”

“Heavy crossbows, take aim on the giant pythons, go!”

…

The soldiers shouted nervously as they looked at the horde of pythons swarming toward them, maniacally shooting out the arrows in their hands.

The Pear Blossom Crossbows could be equipped at high speeds, and could release a hundred arrows at once. Under the instruction of the leader, five hundred soldiers shot arrows in waves of three, creating a concentrated rain of arrows.

In that instant, the pythons that were pouncing over were turned into porcupines, blood flowing incessantly out of their wounds. The tip of the arrows are coated with a poison that Alice had created. After being hit, even the hundred-meter-long Black Mamba Giant Pythons would turn dizzy, much less the ordinary pythons.

Compared to the Pear Blossom Crossbows, the giant heavy catapults were slower, but it was ten times, if not dozens of times more powerful. The sea snakes would be heavily injured, if not die on the spot, after being hit by the large thigh-sized arrows!

Compared to the fierce attacks of the soldiers, the Magical Beast Army was simply a meat grinder.

Under Yang Ling’s command, the Twin-legged Flying Dragons dove down, picking up the sea snakes into the skies before tearing them into two. The tightly knit scales on the sea snakes were hard and slippery, sometimes even able to repel even the arrows from the catapults; However, it was completely ineffective against the sharp, powerful claws of the Twin-legged Flying Dragons.

The Horned Bee Beasts did not have enough power, but their offensive capabilities did not pale in comparison to the Twin-legged Flying Dragons when attacking together with the Self-destructing bats.

A dozen Self-destructing Bats would swarm forward, continuously exploding at the same spot on the body of the sea snake, blasting open a wound. The Horned Bee Beasts would then charge forward and dig into the body of the sea snake through the wound, maniacally tearing on the innards of the snakes.

Hiss…

After suffering from heavy casualties and having their first wave of attacks fended off, a hundred-meter-long giant Black Mamba with golden scales roared as it emerged from the surface of the water, instructing the many sea snakes to change their offensive tactics.

Under its instructions, most of the giant pythons stopped just outside the radius of the Pear Blossom Catapults, shooting out sharp water arrows. After the soldiers who were unable to avoid the attacks in time got hit, they started bleeding through their heavy armor.

Even worse, after instructing the giant pythons to put pressure on the archers on the ship, the crafty golden giant python sent out many of the smaller snakes and got them to climb onto the ship, attracting the firepower and attention of the soldiers. It then secretly got the rest of the giant pythons to attack from under the sea.

They would either wrap their tails on the poles on the deck and give them a violent shake, attempting to capsize the entire ship; Or wildly ram onto the bottom of the ships, trying to sink the three larger ships…

“Sir, not good, water is leaking into the bottom of the ship, what do we do?” A soldier fearfully rushed up to the deck.

Water is leaking into the bottom of the ship?

Looking at the fearful soldier, then seeing the countless sea snakes, the expressions of the group turned grim. The pythons were in their element in the water. The outcome would be disastrous if the ships were to sink!

“Brother Yang, I can protect the bottom of the ship for a period of time, but I do not know exactly how long I can last. Let’s hope that the Goddess of Nature will protect us!”

After knowing how critical the situation is, Sofia stepped forward while holding her magical staff, raising her hands after muttering an incantation. In that instant, a large amount of strong green vines appeared, tightly wrapping themselves around the bottom and body of the ship. They formed layer upon layer, absorbing the impact of the giant pythons, sometimes even directly tying them up.

After being purified and becoming a Moon Priestess, Sofia had reached the level of Great Magical Tutor, and just like Yuna, was just one step away from advancing to become a sage level Spellcaster.

The offensive capabilities of natural magic were not as powerful as fire element or lightning element magic, but its defensive capabilities were not far off. However, they were better in areas such as life force and recovery. After summoning a large number of vines to surround the ship, Sofia was confident that she could last for some time. As for whether or not they could fend off the attacks of the snakes, that would have to depend on the abilities of Yang Ling, Ashnamov and the rest.

“Hmph, Ashnamov, order the soldiers to retaliate with all their might!”

After pouring out his magnificent mental energy and ascertaining that the ship was temporarily not undergoing any major threats with Sofia’s protection, Yang Ling decided to seize the time to push back the horde of snakes. He took out his sharp Blood Elf Dagger after letting out a cold grunt, shooting an icy gaze at the golden giant python not far away.

He had to aim for the leader first. As long as he managed to kill or tame the Giant Golden Python, the threat would naturally be eliminated!

As long as the troops and Magical Beast Army were retaliating at full force and attracting the attention of the snake horde, Yang Ling felt more confident that he could directly teleport to the back of the giant python and search for an opportunity to kill or tame it.

“Sir, stay behind and command the army, let me!” Seeing Yang Ling raise his Blood Elf Dagger in his right hand and form an obscure hand gesture with his left, the other people in the group might not understand what he was planning to do. However, the Corpse Wizard King understood Yang Ling’s intentions, speaking as he stepped out.

Unlike the land, the sea was filled with dangers. As long as the Golden Giant Python dove into the sea in time, the risky Yang Ling would naturally slip into a passive and dangerous situation. After understanding this, the Corpse Wizard King volunteered to take on the job for him.

“Sir, let me go!”

“Brother Yang, I’ll go too!”

…

With the Corpse Wizard King’s reminder, seeing Yang Ling stare tightly at the terrifying Golden Giant Python, the group instantly understood his intentions, all of them stepping out to volunteer their services. This was especially so for the commander of the navy Ashnamov. He spoke as he pulled off the Life Necklace that sealed the soul of his wife, passing it to a trusted guard by his side as he prepared to risk his life and give it his all.

“Hmph, y’all following me will only drag me down!” Looking at the Ashnamov, Orlando and the rest asking to follow, Yang Ling felt moved, but his expression did not change. He coldly said, “Stay on the ship all of you, without my orders, no one is to recklessly take action. Roke, remember, you must protect Sofia, Yuna and rest no matter what!”

As a Galapagos Tortoiseman, Ashnamov was undoubtedly the strongest warrior on both the land and sea. Unfortunately, he was still not a match for the terrifying Golden Giant Python. Orlando, Yuna and the rest were even further off, they might not even be able to get close to the python before being strangled to death by the many sea snakes in the sea.

The Corpse Wizard King was powerful, but unfortunately, his abilities were still far from recovering to its peak. Furthermore, as a precaution, he had to leave him behind, by the side of Sofia and Anna. He would have another choice to consider if the Dark Dragon King was awake, but alas…

Roar…

Just as Yang Ling took a deep breath and was about to teleport out using the Wind Evasion Spell, a roar suddenly came from the horizon; Following that, a black shadow flew over, fast as the wind, its speed unparalleled!

After hearing the roar, the pythons that had been maniacally attacking the ships trembled, all of them letting out fearful hisses. They even quickly retreated, the angry roars of the Giant Golden Python having no effect on them.

“Horned Eagle, Sir, we are saved. This is a bunch of Horned Eagles that feed on sea snakes!” After examining them closely, Ashnamov shouted in excitement. As a Galapagos Tortoiseman who had grown up by the side of the sea, he knew more than anyone the power of the Horned Eagle.

The Black Mamba Giant Pythons that had an alarming size were powerful, but that did not mean that they ruled over the sea. In the vast sea, there were countless Magical Beasts that resided on the top of the food chain, the Horned Eagle that had exceptional speeds was one of them. They were the natural enemies of the many sea snakes.

The calf-sized Horned Eagles looked both like a flying beast and a stag, their speeds even faster than a Twin-legged Flying Dragon, comparable to a Dark Dragon. They arrived before the group in the blink of an eye. Their sharp powerful claws easily pierced into the bodies of the sea snakes, tearing open their scales and piercing through their skin, directly digging out the sky-blue Essence Crystals and consuming them in a gulp.
